Upcoming Graduate Recruitment Weekend

No dates are scheduled at this time.

Why should I be a GA?

If you are a full-time student, you are required to have a GA position in student affairs.

You will only be invited to Graduate Recruitment Weekend (GRW) if you are a GA-eligible prospective student and have been approved by the program director. 

This work experience will help expand your résumés and prepare you for continued education or career advancement.

Prepare your résumé

Be sure to bring your résumé to Graduate Recruitment Weekend.

GA supervisors look for résumés that show students are experienced in administration.

This could include:

  • Leadership position in a student organization
  • Part-time work in an institutional office, such as:
    • Academic Advising
    • Admissions
    • Housing/Residence Life
    • International Student Services
    • Orientation
    • Student Financial Aid

Graduate assistants will serve as junior partners to mid-level and senior staff.
